For the newer streaming cameras that are on the EarthCam.com website, we use Adobe Flash's h.264 capability.
A black screen after the loading bar is normal and should go away after a few seconds.
In order to properly view the video you will need (at minimum) version 10.2 or higher.
Earlier versions do not support the h.264 video format.

For instructions on installing Flash, see the section below.

Installing Flash

In order to install the Adobe Flash Player:

1. Go to http://www.adobe.com/
2. Click on the "Get Adobe Flash" button in the left column, and follow the instructions on the page.

There is a known compatibility issue with using Internet Explorer 8 and Google Maps
(which we use for our world map and map overlay for our EarthCam Network player).
In order to correctly get the maps to load you will need to run IE 8 in compatibility mode.

If the player, or parts of the player, appears as a black screen, or does not appear at all, you may need to update Flash.
Please verify that you have at least version 10.2 of the Flash Player installed
and you are using one of the web browsers in the system requirements listed above. You will also need to verify that Javascript is turned on.
Please note that the webcam player may take up to a minute to load under slower connections, such as dial-up.

Browser and Plug-in Detection

Your Current Browser:

Flash Player Version:

Javascript:

Disabled

If you see "version 0" or if the above check does not work correctly you can use the Flash version check
on Adobe's website. It's possible that you may need to reinstall Flash if it is not detected properly.http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html
